It is easy to handle and powerful enough to penetrate the red clay crust in our yard. I had a little trouble getting precision edge-lines since I was used to a single-wheel model that has been discontinued. It's a time saver. Never regretted the purchase and I highly recommended! It is lightweight and easy to handle. There is also a place to tuck the cord in which keeps it out of my way.
I use it to compensate for blade wear. Start at 1", then to 1.25", finally 1.5" then into the trash and put a new blade on. For being electric it had plenty of power and I could move along quite quickly in the drier areas. Relatively quiet as well. I was very pleased with this item. It is very easy to use and does a great job edging. I found that on bigger projects, you could literally pull up the grass without much problem after using a shovel to ease up the sod. It sure beat trying to attempt the process with just a shovel or manual grass edger.
Anyway, I am very pleased with the overall tool. The only part I find lacking is the edge guide.
We had never used an edger so there was a lot of soil and grass at the edges. We retracted the edge guide, set the blade depth to 1", placed it so the wheels were on the grass side (not on the curb side), and ran it carefully in as straight a path as possible. Good & handy Tool - The price could have been more competitive for what it does. This is a great machine.
You just need to attach the handle, tighten three bolts (no tools required), and I was on my way! This edger is quite powerful.
Blade wear hasn't been an issue for me. If you are dead set against gas edgers, try this one.
Once the edge-line is established, this machine BREEZES through to clean up 'already-edged' areas. It's definitely a work horse for unmaintained areas. If you're not a prime member you should seriously consider it! This also worked great around our landscaping in the back yard.
The Black & Decker LE750 Edge Hog Electric Landscape Edger is easy to handle. It works great and has no batteries to go out.
